# What do the colours in the work-rest hours mean?

MXSuite distinguishes between rest hours and short breaks.

According to MLC 2006 short work breaks are not considered as rest hours. Depending on the settings in MXSuite, a working interruption of a maximum of 2 hours may or may not be counted as rest hours.
